If you’ve spent a few winters here in Columbia, you know how unpredictable they can be. One day it’s chilly and gray, and the next you’re wondering if it’s too early to pull the grill back out. That constant change, warm days, cold nights, and just enough frost to do damage, can quietly wear your lawn down.

At Fairway Lawns, we help your yard get through the off-season healthy and ready for spring. Even when your grass looks like it’s taking a break, it’s still alive underneath, roots are growing, the soil’s shifting, and nutrients are being stored.

Why Winter Lawn Care Matters

Your lawn doesn’t stop growing in winter, it just changes gears. The roots keep working hard underground, and how you treat them during this season determines how your lawn will look in March and April. Skipping winter care often leads to compacted soil, thin spots, and weeds waiting to take over the second the temperature rises.

Columbia’s clay soil makes this even more important. It holds onto moisture and compacts easily, which limits airflow to the roots. That’s why our winter program focuses on feeding the soil, opening it up, and helping your grass stay strong even while it’s resting.

Pro Tip: Winter fertilization is like a reset button for your lawn, it help it bounce back faster after the long, hot Carolina summer.

Our Winter Lawn Care Services

Lawn Care Services

Every yard across the Midlands has its own personality. Maybe yours sits under tall pines in Irmo, or maybe it bakes in full sun near Lake Murray. We’ve seen it all, and we tailor our approach to fit what your yard actually needs.

Winter Fertilization

We use slow-release fertilizers that feed your lawn gently through the cooler months. It’s not about forcing fast growth; it’s about nourishing the roots so they stay healthy until spring.

Winter Weed Control

Cool-season weeds like chickweed, henbit, and clover love our mild winters. We target them early so they don’t get a head start before your grass wakes up.

Soil pH & Nutrient Testing

Winter’s a great time to test and balance your soil. Columbia’s rain and clay can throw off your pH, so we adjust it now to make sure fertilizers and treatments work their best later.

Disease & Pest Monitoring

Milder winters mean pests and fungus don’t always go away. We inspect your lawn for early signs of disease or overwintering insects and stop problems before they spread.

When to Schedule Winter Lawn Treatment

In Columbia, the sweet spot for winter lawn treatment is late November through early February, after your grass slows down, but before the ground cools too much. That’s when the soil can still absorb nutrients and build root strength.

Did You Know?

  • Lawns treated in winter not only green up faster, but they also stay healthier through the long, humid summers that Columbia is known for.
